. II lain-lag. no Celebrated Brod
In“ Decision and One Case in Which
“- Court Reversed Itself.
. During its career of nearly 106 years
the United States Supreme Court has
» Mend many decisions which at-
finoted as much attention at the time as
that in the income tax case has done.
In 1810 the Supreme Court for the first
this nullified a State law in the Yuoo
. land case. Georgia. under slaw passed
, @1795. sold to the Yazoo companies for
$500,009 territory which she claimed in
what is now the States of Alabama and
. Mississippi. Charges being made that
the passage of this law was brought
them by bribery, an act revoking the
, and directing the return of the
may to all purchasers who should ap~
ly for it within eight months was
in 1796. In 1802 Georgia ceded
. this land to the national government,
herenpon the purchasers demanded
. ‘ heir rights from the United States. A
introduced in Congress to recognize
ll sir claims was defeated.
In the case of Fletcher vs. Peck the
npreme Court held that States were
, orhidden by the Federal Constitution
' D (article 1. section 10) to pass laws im-
‘ pairing the obligations of contracts, and
“ that consequently the revoking act of

Another suit in which the inviolability I
of contracts was involved, and which ex-
cited great popular interest at the time. .
was the case known as the Trustees of .
Dartmouth College vs. Woodward. The
State of New Hampshire. claiming the
right to amend a charter which it had
,- previously granted. its Legislature. in
.7. 810, [Based acts changing the name of
outh College to Dartmouth Univ
‘ Varsity, and created a new corporation
fl" which the college property was trans-
(erred.
‘ The case being carried to the United
j. States Supreme Court on a writ of error,
i the judgment was reversed in 1819.
. .Daniel Webster. the loading counsel for

' fame as alawyer and orator in tho Dart‘

M. Harvey in the St. Louis Globe, Dem-
ocrat, settled the law that a. charter

degree without the consent of those who
held it. unless the powvr of revision is

in the charter or by a general l7i\\' oi' the

attention and created a for more pro-
found impressiou than even the (hero-
kee matter was the Dred Scott :ifl'air in
1857. Dr. Emerson. of the Fuitod
States army. taking Dred Scott. one of
his slaves. with him. wont in 15:14 from
Missouri to Rock Island. lll.. whcro
slavery was prohibited by statute. and
/‘ thence to Fort Snelling. in what is now
Minnesota. where it was prohibited by
the Missouri compromise. and four
years later returned to Missouri.
Learning that his residence in free tea
ritory gave him a claim to l'l'ccdoin.
Scott. in 1848. having been whipped by
his master's orders. brought suit in St.
Louis against him for assault and but-
tery, which action. of course. involved
the question of his freedom. After
many imitations in the citric. during
which Scott changed masters by being
purchased by J. F. A. Saudt’ord. of New
York. the matter got to the Supreme
Court in i855. At that time the Sn-
preme (‘ourt consisted of Chief Justice
Taney and Associate Justices Wayne,

States). McLean and (‘urtis (Whigs

On March ll. 1857. Taucy road thc de-
cision. Justices McLean and ('urtis dis-
senting. whichqu that Scott was not a
citizen of Missouri in the sons» in which
the word citizen is used in tho i ‘onslitu-
tion; that the lower court had no juris-
diction in the case; that Scott had no
right to one. and that the judgment of
the lower court must be reversed and a
mandate issued directing the suit to be
dismissed i'orwunt of jurisdiction. The
decision went further than this. how-
ever. touching on the slavery question
in its broad political aspect. and heroin
lies itsliistoric significance and impor-
tance. Itdcuicd the right of (‘ongrcss
to control slavery in the. 'i‘crrilorios and
declared that tho Missouri comprom :o
“of 1820. prohibiting slavery in the Lous—
inna torritory north of ill; «ll-grow: 30
minutes was uuconstitntionul and void.
The last of the memorable Hr‘»: wuo
Court decisions which will be lili'h .. nll‘d
here was tlmlrouderod in IHSI regarding
the constitutional power of (‘oum'ess to
authorize theissue of legal lender notes
in time of peace. A suit brought in
